[Three strangers blaze amidst a bonfire's revel]
QUÆRE PEREGRINUM.
Three strangers blaze amidst a bonfire's revel;
The Pope, and the Pretender, and the Devil.—
Three strangers hate our faith, and faith's defender;
The Devil, and the Pope, and the Pretender.—
Three strangers, will be strangers long, we hope;
The Devil, and the Pretender, and the Pope.—

—And he that chooses to dance after 'em, may.
